The principal reception rooms include a beautifully proportioned living room with large-height bay windows, open marble fireplace, and double doors opening into a distinguished dining room with its own bay window and dual aspects. A cloakroom with 2pc suite, a former powder room now ideal as a pantry, and an expansive living dining kitchen complete the ground floor’s principal accommodation. The kitchen is appointed with a suite of high-end appliances including Gaggenau and Neff, granite work surfaces with matching upstands, an island unit, and integrated refrigeration.

A second bedroom with en suite adjoins this space, offering the possibility of combining to form a magnificent master retreat.

The estate also incorporates a now unused 70ft by 41ft pool complex with 40ft x 20ft swimming pool, bar, plant room, and changing facilities, alongside a tennis court awaiting reinstatement or adaptation. The site also lends itself to further development potential, subject to necessary consents having previously had planning permission circa 1997 to convert the swimming pool in to a single storey dwelling. Rarely does a home of such provenance, scale, and opportunity grace the market. Slater House represents a unique chance to acquire not just a property, but a piece of Lancashire’s heritage. The house and cottage are held under separate ownership and, from a purchaser's perspective, may be acquired independently of one another. However, it is the sellers' preference that both properties are sold as part of a single transaction Council Tax Band: Slater House - H, Slater Cottage - E I Freehold I EPC: Slater House - D, Slater Cottage - D

Renovations and improvements Newtown Grange Farmhouse is a home that has been restored and refurbished by its present owners over a period of ten years. The result is a distinguished property that combines heritage features and richly benefits from contemporary additions. It exemplifies a grand country estate property and is impressively set in its own grounds behind electric gates shielded from Desford Road. Grey rendered walls, multi paned sash windows and towering chimney stacks above a grey slated hip and valley roof, trigger the imaginative to wonder how many have seen and indeed visited this lovely property from its original construction in the 1800s. Through a series of renovations and improvements, this detached house offering five reception rooms and nine bedrooms over three floors has been sympathetically modernised for the 21st century by being thoroughly rewired (2015), installed with a central heating system and replacement windows. Within, the large rooms graced by natural light and Victorian features, have been plastered and decorated, and high quality integrated fixtures and fittings have enhanced the kitchen and bathing areas to add contemporary appeal. Newtown Grange Farmhouse is a home that has stood the test of time while preserving its architecture and appearance as an integral feature within the hamlet of Newtown Unthank. Situated six miles west of Leicester, here, you have a rare opportunity to invest in a house in an idyllic rural location that offers privacy and style, whilst enjoying the convenience of being only a short drive away from bustling towns – Market Bosworth or Desford - or further afield, to access major transport links to anywhere in the country from this central England location. Character and style Sitting on just under an acre of land, the house is approached through electrically operated gates and the driveway sweeps up to and across the front of the property. It is enclosed and landscaped with borders and planting, leading to a quadruple sized, detached garage, supplied with electricity. There is ample space for turning and parking, and when light fades, there are several outside lights with motion sensors for additional security and safety. The front entrance is through a glass door with semi-circular fanlight, mirrored by another window above the panelled mahogany interior door. High ceilings, classically inspired encaustic pavement and border tiling, dado railing and deep skirting boards create a powerful first impression. The Victorian reception hall was meant to establish the nature of the home and this one, wide and tall, is the central channel for the property, with reception rooms to the left and right. A magnificent galleried staircase is the focal point. It is an original, bespoke feature of the house. Made from mahogany, the embossed newel posts, handrail and carved balusters take the eye to the ceilings above where natural light cascades through the skylight. The staircase is carpeted and as elsewhere in the house, all carpets have been replaced. Beneath and behind the stairs and within a separate back hall, a separate door provides access to the cellar. This is a very large space and provides excellent provision for storage, having also been included in the renovation project and fit for purpose. An abundance of reception rooms and a ground floor bedroom suite Newtown Grange Farmhouse is a house with possibilities and options. There are five spacious, beautifully decorated reception rooms and their designated title and purpose is totally a matter of taste and preference. As standard, high ceilings with coving and central light fixtures, deep skirting boards and picture rails dividing plainly painted walls, emphasise the size and beauty of the large windows and airy rooms. From the reception hall, panelled mahogany doors open into the games room, lounge and sitting room. All of them are carpeted and have dual aspects looking into the grounds. In addition to the radiators, there are open fireplaces in each and in the snug. They are quite distinctive and have a range of hearths, mantel shelves and adornments. This abundance of independent but equally luxurious space would allow privacy if separate lounges are required. Likewise, the rooms could be altered to provide a study, library, office or playroom. The sitting room has French doors and access to a private lobby from where the downstairs bedroom suite is reached: a door to the left revealing a shower room and a door to the right opening into a large double bedroom with dual aspect views overlooking the garden. The shower room consists of a walk in shower with tiling to floor and walls, a hand basin and toilet. It has been designed to permit its valuable use as an ensuite bathroom but the inclusion of the dividing lobby means the room could serve many purposes. The cosy snug can be entered from either the games room or back hall. It has exposed beams, a laminate flooring and is next door to a downstairs cloakroom, consisting of a toilet and hand basin. As with all bathing facilities in this prestigious property, the quality, fitting and style of fixtures is to a high specification, with coordinating tiles and flooring. Lastly, the fifth reception room is the dining room. This is reached from the back hall and is in between the boiler room (also accessible from the downstairs bedroom) and kitchen. The room has delightful views into the garden through French doors that open onto a patio. Food preparation The kitchen has been completely refurbished to contemporary specifications. The bespoke arrangement of medium oak cabinetry for storage, quartz work tops for food preparation and integrated appliances – the dishwasher and ovens are included in the sale - have been cleverly arranged around a central island unit. The whole area is carefully styled and designed for practicality. A double sink unit is beneath one window while another reveals garden views. Flooring identical to the snug has been used here and splashback tiles in coordinating shades of grey and white compliment the contemporary neutrality of the room. The first and second floor bedrooms The first floor galleried landing is a fine feature of the property and re-emphasises the prestigious architectural merits of the building. On this floor there are six very large bedrooms, two of which have ensuite bathrooms and a separate family bathroom with shower cubicle. The second floor has two more spacious bedrooms and another separate shower room. Each of the bedrooms are generously proportioned and share similar qualities such as coordinating carpets and exposed beams. They also have distinctive features including fitted storage, fireplaces and outlooks. They have been decorated tastefully and maintained to a high standard of presentation. And to the garden Newtown Grange Farmhouse has an attractive, well maintained walled garden, with greenhouses, a large lawn, established fruit trees and plants of many varieties. The generous nature of the grounds beautifully compliments the house and adds its own special charm. LOCALITY Newtown Unthank is a hamlet. By definition the word ‘hamelet’ is often applied to a satellite of a larger settlement. To provide relevant locality information, the larger village of Desford has been focussed upon. Desford is a village situated in the south-west of Leicestershire, benefitting from all the merits of its countryside location while also being close to motorway and rail networks that crisscross this east Midlands region. It is only seven miles west from Leicester’s city centre, with its multi-cultural restaurants, theatres, museums, galleries, rich retail selection and attractions such as the King Richard III exhibition. From Desford, the closest motorway links are the M1 and M69 toward Enderby. There are train stations at Rugby for links to Birmingham and Narborough for links to Leicester, with trains running regularly from there to London St Pancras International. East Midlands Airport (EMB) and Birmingham Airport (BHX) are the closest airports. Desford or ‘Deor’s Ford’ was first recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086 but is possibly of Anglo-Saxon origin, being based on a significant hill 400 feet above sea level. St Martin’s parish church dates from the late thirteenth century and the village centre has a selection of Grade II listed buildings including a timber framed manor house and service buildings from the 1600’s. The Baptist Church on Chapel Lane was constructed in 1866. All combine to mark the centuries that have passed in Desford, including the present development of homes. The original settlement was based around the open fields system of agriculture predating the Norman Conquest. In 1767 the Enclosure Act forced the predominantly farming community to become invested with industrial economics, namely framework knitting. Then, with the dawn of the Industrial Revolution, came the railway. A railway station was built linking established lines to larger towns and cities. It was closed to passengers in 1964 but continued to be used for freight including the transportation of coal from the Desford Pit until it too closed in 1984. Members of the Desford Historical Society have erected a half winding wheel on Lindridge Lane as a permanent reminder of the era and today Caterpillar Inc. are a significant employer in the area, having repurposed the old Desford aerodrome. Today, the bustling village is part of the Harborough district of Leicestershire and is within a half hour drive of Enderby, Kirby Muxloe, Market Bosworth and Kirkby Mallory. Although it has existed for centuries, this large village continues to appeal to the community through a wide selection of sport, (Sport in Desford Clubhouse with new Scout hut and tennis courts) education and leisure amenities. There are an array of shops, a library, cafes, a pharmacy and parks. Public houses include The Lancaster close to the old railway station and the Bluebell Inn in the village centre. For more details this site may help: https://www.desford-pc.gov.uk For those requiring primary schools, Desford has its own: Desford Primary School. Wider afield secondary education can be found in Market Bosworth, Countesthorpe, and Lutterworth or at Leicester Grammar.

Found at the top of a spacious private tarmac drive lined with tall graphite eco fencing, it is approached from Welford Road through black steel gates and along a driveway lined with lights and shrubs. It is an impressively individual building from the very first glance. Although it is only natural to try and imagine what this exceptional property has to offer, this is an original, and as such will undoubtedly deliver beyond expectations. This Stunning Home has been developed and personalised by the present owners over the last sixteen years. It is a residence that exudes modern characteristics and attributing features of architectural note. The main part of the building is in white render, accessorised with horizontal graphite windows, and a large chimney stack amidst a sweeping clerestory roof. It has been specifically extended and refurbished to add contemporary features, fixtures and fittings creating a split level house with an enormous one hundred metre squared bedroom extension connected to the main building through a glass link. In total, it has six bedrooms, a spacious open plan living area, gymnasium, triple garage and glass sided balcony, equipped with graphite pergolas below. By reconfiguring and adding to the existing structure, open space and versatility have been created in abundance within half an acre of grounds that overlook beautiful open farmland and countryside. This is an exclusively designed modern home. Welcoming The driveway is generously proportioned and easily provides parking for up to ten cars. There is a pond with waterfall feature at the front of the building and well maintained landscaped gardens consisting of lawn, trees and shrubbery. The triple garage is cedar clad and has been deliberately personalized to coordinate with the main house, featuring pent roof and four automated doors. Once inside, the hallway captures the essence of the interior design; it is light filled and spacious, with subtle lighting fixtures, minimal decoration and natural textures. The floor is covered with large white gloss porcelain tiles: they run throughout the hallway and into the large bedrooms found via a glass extension on the left. The tongue and groove doors in the property are made from medium oak wood, accessorised with brushed steel furniture, and coordinate with the staircase/steps that lead from the hall into the wonderful living space beyond. Contemporary design for relaxation and comfort Here, there is a combination of lounge, dining room and kitchen. There are areas demarcated for specific purposes with the use of furniture or fixtures but the generous proportion of the living space, plus the views that surround it into the garden and beyond, create an exceptionally light and relaxing room that is the geographical heart of the home. Travertine flooring is used throughout the living space and a bespoke feature wall of cedar cladding creates a perfect place to view a wide screen television for the lounge area. Directly above, there is one of two hidden entrances into the loft space, which has lighting, insulation and is boarded. A log burner has been positioned diagonally in the furthest corner of the living space – there is a covered cedar porch with log store close by - opposite to the open kitchen. The whole space is beautifully neutral and distinctively unique, with an easy relaxed vibe for everyday needs but with the capability for larger scale entertaining. The kitchen has three pairs of sliding anthracite doors. Two of them open onto the wide balcony. The covered balcony offers a fantastic extension to the living area and is decked with wood grain anthracite composite flooring. Here, purpose placed opaque glass affords privacy when using the hot tub, while the three metre by seven metre graphite pergolas can be opened or closed to suit. Within the bespoke kitchen, there is a sweep of worktop with space for double integrated appliances in cabinetry that is both practical and very fitting in this open plan arrangement of rooms. Stools fit neatly into one of the work surfaces and a steel extractor fan is ceiling hung from above the convection hob. The double ovens and dishwasher are included in the sale of the property. The dining area is at the side of the kitchen. Here there are two cabin windowed doors opening into a store on the left and a landing on the right. The landing leads to a staircase dropping to the rooms on the lowest level. The utility is below the kitchen – reached by going down the staircase – it is similarly fitted for storage, has an additional sink and provides plumbing for laundry appliances. There is also a pantry next door and the internal door to the snug. The snug is entered along a hall from the staircase and double doors opening onto the front of the property. The snug provides a wonderful addition to the home. Remember…there are six bedrooms From the original point of entry, instead of ascending the stairs to the living area, the bedrooms are on the opposite side on ground level. From the hall there are doors to two bedrooms at the front of the building and another at the rear. Presently, two of them are being used as separate studies. A family bathroom with separate toilet and basin are across the hall. Lastly, a fourth bedroom that has its own en-suite and doors that open into the garden. Another L shaped bedroom at the opposite end of the hall has a 4.5 metre window overlooking the front of the property. It is a spacious room and is fitted with mirrored wardrobes. The master suite of rooms making up the prime bedroom is at the furthest wing of the property. The extensive minimalist bedroom has windows on three sides and one with an electrically operated blind that stretches across the 4.5 metres of glass that looks into the garden and beyond. This prime suite has a bespoke dressing room with skylights, for him and her, and a designer minimalist en-suite by Lisa Melvin entitled ‘Rock Star’. This was featured in an edition of the Utopia kitchen and bathroom magazine and has a Hudson Reed wall-hung vanity unit with double basin, drawers and a three-panelled mirrored cabinet. There is a 3.6 ‘Dreamwall’ component behind the Waters Brook2 freestanding white bath and a supersize walk through rainfall shower, fitted with a Hansgrohe dance shower system and silver moon mosaic floor tiles. Graphite porcelain tiles are used elsewhere. The chrome finish radiator and towel warmer is made by Bisque and on skirting board level, the blue toned lighting reacts automatically with movement sensors. All fixtures and fittings in all the bathing areas of this Home have been tastefully selected for their contemporary design and fitted to high specifications. They all impress with the continuing theme of natural materials, a neutral palette and stunning attention to detail. Outside in the rear garden, a cedar clad summer house continues with the appearance of the house. There are landscaped gardens to enjoy and ever-changing, seasonal views looking out to open countryside. In all aspects tis impressive home undeniably fulfils the definition of exceptional: superior, superb and completely out of the ordinary,’ South Kilworth is a village in central England, a region referred to as the East Midlands. It is situated towards the southernmost extremity of Leicestershire being only a half hour drive from Leicester’s city centre. It is in the LE17 postcode district and is a civil parish. It falls within the district council of Harborough and is within easy reach of larger towns such as Lutterworth, Husbands Bosworth and Rugby, all providing a variety of amenities such as edge of town super stores or uniquely bespoke shops. Essentially, South Kilworth is geographically at the centre of an intersection of routes. The North Road takes you to North Kilworth and heading south on the Kilworth Road will lead to Welford. Heading south-west or north-west, will incur meeting the M1 at junctions 19 and 20, Rugby and Lutterworth respectively. From those points the M6 and M69 maximise the potential for speedier travel by road from this central Midland location. There are two railway stations within easy reach at Rugby and Market Harborough, with regular high speed trains to London Euston and St. Pancras taking a little over one hour. The nearest airports are East Midlands, Birmingham and Coventry. In times past, the Domesday Book of 1086 records a settlement known then as Cleveliord which many believe is referring to South Kilworth as it could mean hedged enclosure. There have been settlements in the vicinity since prehistoric times with later evidence pertaining to Roman, Anglo Saxon and mediaeval periods. The village was certainly established before the Norman Conquest, with a manor and farming community. There remains evidence of forridge and furrow cultivation in fields bordering the village. The church of St Nicholas is twelfth century in part but holds a clock tower installed as a memorial to the men of the locality who died fighting in the 1914-18 war. There are a number of historic houses in the village along the Welford and Walcote Roads dating from the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. Today, the village hall located on Leys Crescent is the centre for many social activities, events and clubs. It has extensive sports pitches, a children’s playground, adult fitness equipment and a bowling green. As with many communities, people are interested to share points of communal interest and the South Kilworth monthly newsletter will be a good starting point for those new to the area. An excellent village website produced by the parish council also contains a wealth of information. www.southkilworth.co.uk There are several public houses and restaurants in or close by to South Kilworth: The White Hart, The Attic, White Lion or Black Horse to name a few. These serve locally produced food and ales. There is easy access to wider open spaces, with nature reserves and bridal paths within easy reach. Kilworth Springs Golf Club, Kilworth House Hotel and the Outdoor Theatre attract people to the vicinity, as does the North Kilworth Marina. Golf courses and equestrian centres are easily reached by car. There is a local primary school, South Kilworth Primary School but over a wider area there are several educational options; nursery, primary and secondary. South Kilworth is in the catchment area for the Rugby (Warwickshire) Grammar Schools. Other schools include the Rugby School, Leicester Grammar, Princethorpe and Oakham. There are also private establishments in the county offering bordering facilities. The Office for Standards in Education - OFSTED – is best researched to provide a comprehensive review of currently rated standards of practice.

Inside, a spacious entrance hall with adjoining cloakroom provides a welcoming first impression. The open-plan library/living room features a part-vaulted ceiling, original dividing beams, and a feature brick wall with a wood-burning stove, adding warmth and character. The current owners have added a bespoke oak-framed garden room, creating a wonderful space to extend the seasons and enjoy views of the garden throughout the year.

The current owners have previously submitted a pre-application planning enquiry, which received a favourable response for conversion into a separate dwelling. Seller Insight Conveniently located in historic Barkway village, this elegant Georgian home has been lived in and loved by the same family for over thirty years. The family were looking for a spacious home, large enough for family life and with the added benefit of an annexe that would accommodate an elderly parent, whilst still being connected to the main house. The Oak House ticked all the boxes, and the owners describes the immediate welcoming atmosphere and charm the family experienced when they viewed the property. Over the years each room has been enjoyed and appreciated, with all the spaces thoughtfully suited to both everyday living and entertaining. The living room and library combine to make a favourite space and have a definite wow factor, and the owners say first time visitors always exclaim: Stunning!. This is where you can relax by the glow of the wood burner or read and work contentedly in the library area. The garden room provides a delightful link between the house and garden and is the perfect place for breakfast and a morning coffee with the garden as a pretty background and perhaps give guests a pre-dinner drink before moving through to the dining room. It is a home which can comfortably provide hospitality and the owners recall memorable parties, including an event when a marquee was installed in the garden and guests drifted happily between house and garden. Externally, the garden is a real extension of the living space. There are charming areas to sit and relax either under the pergola, in the shade of an apple tree or enjoying al fresco meals around the twelve-seater table by the barn at the end of the garden. The barn is a substantial building and currently used as an office with sauna, shower facilities and a mezzanine sitting area, yet large enough for conversion into a separate dwelling. The owners will miss the comfort, space and character of the much-loved home but the time has come to downsize and move nearer to family. The house is ready to welcome its next family and create a new chapter of memories.
